The Longfellow House in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States, is a 2/3-scale replica of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's home in Cambridge, Massachusetts.[1] Built in 1907, the house was neither seen nor lived in by Longfellow (who died in 1882), but was the home of an admiring Minneapolis businessman named Robert "Fish" Jones.[2] Longfellow House stands within Minnehaha Park and is a contributing property to the Minnehaha Historic District.[3]
